DJ Shadow Organ Donor June 28, 2004
You have to love that Shadow's "hit" is the third-shortest interlude on his magnum opus Endtroducing…. But you really have to love that he stretches it out live with appropriately teased individual

John Cage 4'33" June 15, 1990
On August 29, 1952, David Tudor walked onto the stage of the Maverick Concert Hall, near Woodstock, New York, sat down at the piano, and, for four and a half minutes, made no sound. He was performing

David Bowie Rock 'n' Roll Suicide July 3, 1973
This particular show will remain with us the longest... because not only is it the last show of the tour, but the last show that we'll ever do." Bold lead-in to a set-capping number, but Bowie more

Daft Punk April 29, 2006
The live set that changed the direction and velocity of all electronic dance music, and made a whole lot of less-awesome DJs a whole lot of money about a half-decade later. Would be nice if Daft Punk would

Cloud Nothings Wasted Days August 17, 2012
Garage-punk kids Cloud Nothings look fairly unassuming in person, but once Dylan Baldi opens his mouth and shakes his hair in front of his eyes, all hell breaks loose on stage — and in the audience. Playing

The Clash London Calling Train in Vain The Guns of Brixton April 25, 1980
The year 1980 was kind to the Clash. Once the punk pioneers released London Calling in the U.S., they came crashing through American television sets via cult comedy show Fridays with three full live tracks:

Clara Rockmore The Swan June 15, 1977
Expert theremin playing is never not awesome to watch, and few were as masterful at it than Lithuanian thereminist Clara Rockmore. Not only is her performance of Camille Saint-Saens' "The Swan"

Can Sing Swan Song March 22, 1973
No amount of conventional structuring is a prerequisite for a Can jam, but the Krautrock pioneers were certainly capable of gorgeous songwriting when so inclined, as well-exemplified by the fluttering

Bruce Springsteen Rosalita July 8, 1978
When MTV needed some Springsteen to play in the pre-Born in the U.S.A. era, they turned to this blast of kinetic energy from the E Street Band's 1978 performance of then-signature live cut

Boredoms Super Go!!! August 1. 1999
One of the most gonzo rock acts — if you dare even ascribe them a genre — of the last quarter-century, playing one of their most frenzied and incendiary tracks with all the reckless abandon that you'd

Bobby McFerrin Demonstrating the Pentatonic Scale June 12, 2009
McFerrin's enduring reputation as the one-hit wonder behind "Don't Worry, Be Happy" significantly undersells his actual legacy in music, as a brilliant singer and percussionist, a ten-time Grammy

Bob Dylan Tangled Up and Blue November 21, 1975
The Rolling Thunder Revue tour of '75 and '76 remains one of the high-water marks of Dylan's highly unpredictable career as a live performer, and this clip does a pretty solid job demonstrating why. His

Bo Diddley Hey Bo Diddley & Bo Diddley November 29, 1965
A bespectacled, duck-walking, pushing-40 Bo Diddley probably wouldn't be anyone's idea of a conventional heartthrob, but he sure got the girls screaming back in the day. The riotous crowd watching his

Blondie A Girl Should Know Better August 15, 1975
Despite coming a couple years before the band hit it big, and featuring a song that was never really released, Blondie's 1975 CBGB's performance of "A Girl Should Know Better" is as clear an

Beyoncé Sex On Fire June 26, 2011
If you're a Beyoncé fan, you've inevitably fanned out over this explosive Kings of Leon cover, which Mrs. Carter tossed into her set list during her headlining Glastonbury slot in 2011. It's everything

The Beatles Don't Let Me Down January 30, 1969
So little of the Beatles' musical legacy is live-based that 45 years later, it's still more than a little jarring to watch a clip of them simply performing one of their best songs live. The Fab Four's

Beastie Boys White Shadow February 14, 1984
There's before-they-were-famous videos, and there's videos where a group that went on to be one of the best and most important artists of the post-punk era look like a bunch of dorky schlubs auditioning

Afghan Whigs When We Two Parted Haldern Pop Fest. August 11, 2012
